What can parents, teachers, or interested citizens find out from the TELL survey? Since my children are all proud Admirals, I chose Danville High School's report as an example to use in illustrating possibilities.

Above, I've highlighted the six questions where DHS differed from high schools statewide by 20 points or more. The answer on students following the rules is particularly startling, with only 27 percent of local educators seeing students as following rules of conduct, compared to a much stronger 62 percent statewide. That's surely the basis for some important discussion in our community!
